The Ohlins STX 36 rear shock pair for the Zontes 350D is built around proven suspension architecture to improve control and consistency on the road. As a matched twin-shock set, it is intended to deliver clearer chassis feedback and more predictable behaviour through changing speeds and surfaces. It uses a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated design to help maintain damping stability during sustained riding.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins develop their scooter shocks with the same focus on damping quality and repeatability that underpins their wider motorsport program. The STX 36 family is designed to give riders access to proper adjustability and support in a compact rear-suspension package. On the Zontes 350D, the goal is improved confidence through better controlled wheel movement rather than a harsh ride.

Who this shock is for

This rear pair suits Zontes 350D riders who want more control than a basic OE-style shock can provide. It is aimed at riders who are sensitive to rear-end stability under braking, mid-corner composure, and traction when accelerating. It is also relevant if you regularly carry varying loads and want damping you can tune to suit.

Shock design & features

• STX 36 scooter shock absorber design supplied as a rear twin set.
• Gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated construction to support consistent damping performance.
• Designed to provide controlled response over bumps and surface changes while maintaining chassis stability.

Tuning controls

• Rebound damping adjustment to control how quickly the rear returns after compression.
• Compression damping adjustment to manage support under braking, bumps and acceleration loads.

Before you install

• Confirm correct fitment for your exact Zontes 350D model and year before installation.
• Plan to set sag and check overall rear ride balance after fitting, as setup is critical to getting the benefit from adjustable damping.
• Re-check fasteners and alignment after initial rides as part of normal suspension installation practice.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins units are designed to be serviced, allowing oil and wear parts to be refreshed to maintain damping performance over time. Keeping to a sensible service interval for your usage conditions helps preserve consistency and component life.
